navigate after eight seconds from pressing a button - function

Question

this is my button
Button(action: {
SearchSomeone()
},label: {
NavigationLink(destination: mySearchList()){
HStack(alignment: .center) {
Text("Search")
.font(.system(size: 17))
.fontWeight(.bold)
.foregroundColor(.white)
.frame(minWidth: 0, maxWidth: .infinity)
.padding()
.background(
RoundedRectangle(cornerRadius: 25)
.fill(Color("Color"))
.shadow(color: .gray, radius: 2, x: 0, y: 2)
)
}
and this button does the function and search together at the same time and since search would take time so I won't see the list, how can I do the function and then after 8 seconds I do the navigation after it ? thank you

According to the information, you'd like to switch to a new view after 8 seconds. This code should work for you.
import SwiftUI
struct ContentView: View {
//Variable to see if view should change or not
#State var viewIsShowing = false
var body: some View {
//Detecting if variable is false
if viewIsShowing == false {
//Showing a button that sets the variable to true
Button(action: {
//Makes it wait 8 seconds before making the variable true
DispatchQueue.main.asyncAfter(deadline: .now() + 8.0) {
viewIsShowing = true
}
}) {
//Button text
Text("Search")
.font(.system(size: 17))
.fontWeight(.bold)
.frame(minWidth: 0, maxWidth: .infinity)
.padding()
.background(
RoundedRectangle(cornerRadius: 25)
.fill(Color("Color"))
.shadow(color: .gray, radius: 2, x: 0, y: 2)
)
}
} else {
//If the variable equals false, go here
View2()
}
}
}
//Your other view you want to go to
struct View2: View {
var body: some View {
Text("abc")
}
}
